Can't HotSync Mac OS 10.5.6 with Palm Z22

I have been trying to sync my computer and my palm all day today. It will not complete the sync. I have completely reset my Palm (Hard Reset) to see if that would help, but nothing. The Palm keeps freezing on Synchronizing Expenses. It cannot get past that point. HELP!
Post relates to: Palm Z22

I am running 10.5.8 on my imac and I have the most up to date palm software on my z22 and imac.  I had been having issues with my old palm, so I purchased a used one on ebay.  It's working great and I was able to sync with my computer, though there was another user on there that had to be deleted.  I did a hard reset to erase all data and was able to sync with no problems.  For the last 2 days, though, I have been having problems. I keep getting an error message that at startup or when I try to reinstall the software that "The transport monitor was unable to process your request" or something like that.  There's a number in parentheses  maybe -1460?  I didn't write it down and I'm guessing.  
Anyway, there's also a problem on my handheld.  There I get a message that the "connection between my device and the desktop could not be established. Check your setup...."  I have also noticed that when I try to open the hotsync manager software, it is showing as open in dock, but there is no window.  There's no place to set it up. The help tells you to choose enable, but there's not even any window open.
So to sum up, there are 3 errors:  The transport monitor, the connection issue, and the missing hotsync window.
I have tried Checking my admin, dumping all the necessary palm files in the trash, running disk repairs, emptying the trash, rebooting, everything that I could find on these posts.  Somehow, I think it is related to the other user.  That user has been deleted from the desktop software and then I did the hard reset, so I don't know how it could be causing any problems now.  
I would do another hard reset, but if I do that and I can't sync this to my computer, then I've lost everything.  I even tried to beam the info to my old one, but I couldn't do that either.  Maybe syncing the two devices to one user caused some problem.  I don't know.  I should try to sync the old one and see if that one works.  It's too late now...but I'll try it tomorrow.
One of the posts mentioned something about a serial thing on the usb connection.  I checked and I do not have that, but I was able to sync just fine last week and I didn't do anything different.
I also tried to beam it to my mac because it seems I have the ir hardware, but I don't know how to do it and just aiming it at my screen didn't work.
I hope this is enough info for you to help me with this.  Sorry to go on and on, but I figured more was better.
Thank you so much for any assistance with this.

  • Can't sync Palm with Mac through iSync, only syncs with Palm Desktop

    I have an older Palm Tungsten T3 that I use basically only to run a medical application that I need at work (ePocrates, which has its own conduit and auto-updates itself with hotsyncs). I haven't tried to sync it to my Mac for a long time. I use iCal for my calendaring needs, sync it with my iPod, and ignore the old stuff that's on the Palm, which I hardly ever even sync.
    Today I had to reinstall the Epocrates software, and decided while I was at it I'd try to get the Palm syncing with the Mac (iCal, contacts, etc) again because it would be nice for it to show the same calendar data.
    I reinstalled the newest version of Palm Desktop from scratch. Installed the ePocrates software on top of it. I have iSync 2.4. My Palm was not listed as a device initially. I chose "Enable Palm OS Syncing" from the menu; iSync then went through a series of steps in which it disabled several conduits (presumably to no longer sync with the Palm Desktop), then told me to enable the iSync Palm conduit through the HotSync manager, which I did.
    I now show the Palm as a device on iSync, but it has a yellow caution icon over it and I'm not sure why. Clicking on it shows an options dialog. I chose for the first sync I wanted to erase everything on the device and then sync with the Mac. My syncs appear to work, but when the data is checked it seems to sync only with Palm Desktop. The old junky data on the Palm was not erased as requested. Newer calendar events and contacts from my Mac have not made it to the Palm. The ePocrates auto update conduit is working fine but that's the only part that is.
    Any idea what's incompatible, or what I'm doing wrong here?

    I have The Missing Sync and used it to sync my palm TX. I am now in the process of trying to get iCal going properly again. No longer have any calender views in iCal and the week views don't show until I have opened a month view and then go back to the week view. Very bizzare. Also have a heap of untitled calendar views in the drop down list option when looking at the info on any event - these calendar views are not accessible anywhere else though.
    I'm not sure if it is Missing Sync or something I did wrong at present. Will also throw the problem to the Missing Sync people to see what they say. Will let you know. It seemed to work really well without needing the palm desktop!

  • How can I install Mac OSX on a computer with no OS

    I just bought a PowerMac G5, but it has no OS and the graphics card is shot. I have tried booting via Firewire, but nothing showed up in Start Up Disks. What can I do?

    Try to find one on e-bay but if you buy the gray disks be careful as they are machine specific and will have to be for a G5.
    If you buy the full retail version these are black and will work on most machines.
    Just ask questions or find out what OS X version your G5 came out with.

  • How can I restore mac pro back to original with snow leopard

    I want to restore my macpro back to original, I dont have restore disk, just snow leopard disk. How can I do this?  Thanks

    A nice phone call to Apple usually results in a replacement disk being sent to you.
    I understand your intention is to give this computer away. If you were selling it, not having the original install disks dramatically lowers its value.

  • Tiger 10.4.5: Can't Hotsync my handheld with Entourage 2004

    I have a Palm Tungsten E and in the past have had no trouble hotsyncing it with my Microsoft Entourage 2004 using the Conduit Manager that came with the application. But since I upgraded my OS to 10.4.5 last week, I can no longer hotsync. If I press the hotsync button on my Palm, it just hangs. I finally have to cancel, at which point an error message tells me that "the connection could not be established."
    Once, and only once, I was able to hotsync this week by launching the Conduit Manager software in my Palm folder. But I have not been able to reproduce that result when I tried again. I've also tried different USB ports, to no avail.
    The Microsoft website is mum about this problem, so I don't know if anyone else has a solution? As of now, I'm stuck.
    Thanks,
    Chuck
    iMac G5   Mac OS X (10.4.5)  

    Chuck- sorry, I though this was a Bluetooth problem. Anyway, I did spend some time (2 hours!) on the phone with Palm and the first thing they told me was that they were having problems with 10.4.5 and that I should download the latest version of Palm Desktop for my device. They also gave me instructions for deleting all existing PD stuff from my system (unfortunately I no longer have it- all files containing "palm", of course, plus some plists I wasn't familiar with).
    I did the above and my USB sync works fine. Whether it would have worked before the reinstall but after the 10.4.5 upgrade I don't know.
    You might try a reinstall of Palm Desktop, and if that doesn't work email Palm for the clean install procedure.
    Good luck.

    Do not delete the old account yet. sign up for an iCloud account if you haven't.
    I understand .mac mail will still come through. Do not delete the old account yet.
    You cannot use .mac or MobileMe as type of Account, you have to choose IMAP when setting up, otherwise Mail is hard coded to change imap.mail.me.com to mail.me.com & smtp.mail.me.com to smtp.me.com, no matter what you try to enter.
    iCloud Mail setup, do not choose .mac or MobileMe as type, but choose IMAP...
    On second step where it asks "Description", it has to be a unique name, but you can still use your email address.
    IMAP (Incoming Mail Server) information:
              •          Server name: imap.mail.me.com
              •          SSL Required: Yes
              •          Port: 993
              •          Username: [email protected] (use your @me.com address from your iCloud account)
              •          Password: Your iCloud password
    SMTP (outgoing mail server) information:
              •          Server name: smtp.mail.me.com
              •          SSL Required: Yes
              •          Port: 587
              •          SMTP Authentication Required: Yes
              •          Username: [email protected] (use your @me.com address from your iCloud account)
              •          Password: Your iCloud password
    Also, you must upgrade your password to meet the new criteria:  8 characters, including upper and lower case and numbers.  If you have an older password that does not meet these criteria, when you try to setup mail on your mac, using all of the IMAP criteria listed above, it will still give a server error message.  Go to   http://appleid.apple.com         then follow directions to change your password, then go back to setting up your mail using the IMAP instructions above.
    Thanks to dpepper...

  • Can I use Mac Dictate to convert voice memos to text?

    Can I use Mac Dictate to convert voice memos to text?

    If by "Mac Dictate", you mean the built in speech-to-text feature, no, you can't use that to convert a voice memo, at least not easily. Speech-to-text is designed to work on live speech, not recordings. But, there's no harm in trying.

    can i install Mac OS on in Windows 7? for dual-boot purpose

    But you can install Windows on a Mac via Bootcamp for dual boot.
    For the purposes of Windows®, a Mac is just a generic piece of PC hardware, so installing on to it is permitted by Microsoft's EULA.  On the other hand, Apple have explicitly stated in the EULA for OS X "Mountain Lion" that it should only be installed and run on Apple-branded hardware.  Section 2, Paragraph B, Sub-section 1:
    you are granted a limited, non-transferable, non-exclusive license […] to download, install, use and run for personal, non-commercial use, one (1) copy of the Apple Software directly on each Apple-branded computer…
    (emphasis mine)
    Section 2, Paragraph H:
    The grants set forth in this License do not permit you to, and you agree not to, install, use or run the Apple Software on any non-Apple-branded computer, or to enable others to do so.
    Also, discussion of how to run OS X on non-Apple branded hardware is against these forums' Use Agreement, Section 2 Paragraph 8, including Sub-section 1:
    Keep within the Law
    No material may be submitted that is intended to promote or commit an illegal act.
    This thread'll be reported by someone if any salient advice is offered that enables the OP in his endeavour.

  • How can I install Mac Mini drivers for Windows 7 32-bit if I didn't install Windows 7 using bootcamp?

    Hello. I have a mac-mini (mid 2010) and with bootcamp, was successfully running XP.
    I then decided to upgraded to Windows 7 had lots of trouble installing it on my existing bootcamp partition.
    I finally was able to install Windows 7, by just booting off the CD and letting it install that way.
    But reading more on it, I think I was supposed to use Bootcamp to do it for me...
    I had thought the Bootcamp Assistant was for only fresh installs of a Windows O.S. where no partitiion existed previously.
    I had a partition so thought Bootcamp wasn't required for my needs.
    But now, inside Windows 7, I have 0 drivers installed. I have an AirPort Express, so on the Mac side, I downloaded
    and installed the Windows version of AirPort Utility and copied it to my USB stick. Then
    I exported my settings to a text file on a USB Stick, then on Windows was able to successfully install AirPort Utility and import the settings.
    But it still doesn't find my network. I am pretty sure I'm broadcasting my SSID...
    So I need to know the following:
    1) How to know I'm broadcasting my SSID - where do I find this in settings?
    2) How I can install my mac-mini drivers on Windows 7 so I can use my existing wireless network, now that I've gone through the installation without using Bootcamp?
    3) Do I need to set up network adapters and all that stuff in Windows 7 first? If so, how and what drivers do I need?
    One other thing I tried was downloading Bootccamp 4.x and installing that on Windows 7 to see if it gives me the drivers that were supposed to be written to my USB stick if I had installed Windows 7 using Bootcamp in the first place... However I think the message it said was that it couldn't install as it was the wrong version. So I'm still stuck without drivers and therefore no internet.
    And that is my main task - getting the Internet up and running in Windows 7.
    Other Info:
    I'm running Mac OS X 10.6.8 with 2 GB of memory.
    I installed the 32-bit version of Windows 7 and I don't know what version of Bootcamp I'm running...
    I can tell you that BootCamp Assistant is v3.0.4, but don't know if that means Bootcamp is also 3.0.4.
    Hope you can help.
    Thanks.

    I tried something that worked for me...
    Knowing that after my install of Windows 7 wasn't the correct method (didn't go through bootcamp), and the BootCamp 4.x package wouldn't install under windows 7, I tried reinstalling Bootcamp 4.x in Windows 7 to see what the exact message was it gave me. The message said it couldn't install because of a 32-bit O.S. vs a 64-bit version of the package.
    So that got me thinging - my XP version was 32-bit, and so is my Windows 7 installation. So I tried installing the bootcamp that came with my Mac OS X installation CD. This is bootcamp version 3.1.
    Not only did it install, but it practically took care of everything driver-wise for me. I was then able to see my wireless network, enter my password and I was connected. The only thing else I had to do to get on the Internet was bring IE8 online (guess it ships offline by default). Firewall and Antivirus are now installed, just a few more things to go.
    That's one thing that's just not clear that I'll be sure to note for next time... The Bootcamp packages you download are actually driver packages for Windows. That is where the Windows drivers exists that are necessary to make your Windows 7 PC work on a bootcamp partition!
    I didn't need the AirPoirt Utility at all (at least, I never went into it).
    Thanks VikingOSX for your post. I will not need to follow the steps you provided, but they may help someone else as all of these bootcamp issues I've been reading seem to be very unique per installation.
    Hopefully my solution helps others.
